Books are fungible, but they're not that fungible. The books I want to read, with the exception of public domain, are virtually without exception DRMed. Again, it would be nose-cutting for face-spiting for me to pursue a policy that DRMless books could replace the DRMful.

Reading's my favorite activity and I want to read what I want to read. DRM is a trifle, especially in a scenario where my favorite platform depended on purchasing DRMed books. As I said, Amazon would get much less of my business, but if I had to purchase a Kindle to get access to the content I wanted, I'd do that too.
